Using cool skincare products isn’t limited to blisteringly hot summer days: You can use a skincare fridge to store your favorite beauty products and tools throughout the year. While a skincare fridge may sound like an investment, you don’t have to spend a lot of money on one for your vanity. Most of our beauty editor’s favorite skincare fridges cost less than $50!
Calming: They help soothe irritation and minimize redness by constricting tiny blood vessels in your face, similar to the way that applying ice water to a burned area calms redness and discomfort.
Safe for sensitive skin: You can use cool skincare products when you have sensitive skin, rosacea, use an at-home chemical peel, or undergo a professional cosmetic procedure.
Goodbye swelling: Storing your eye creams for dark circles or undereye patches in a skincare fridge can help minimize puffiness.
Extend the lifespan of products: Using a skincare fridge canhelp prolong the life of delicate skincare actives, including retinol and benzoyl peroxide.
Stabilizes and improves product efficacy:Vitamin C, green tea, and hydroquinone turn brown very quickly once you start using them. Storing these skincare products in your fridge helps maintain higher stability and effectiveness.
Spa vibes: Cool skincare products feel incredibly refreshing on your face, elevating your mundane skincare routine into a spa-like ritual.
Which products should be in your skincare fridge?
As great as a skincare fridge is, you don't need to store every single beauty product and tool in there. Kunin does not recommend placing your oil-based products in a skincare fridge because they can solidify with cold exposure.
Outside of that, hydrating skincare products like face masks, face serums, face mists, and eye creams are fair game. Remember: Items containing vitamin C, green tea, benzoyl peroxide, and hydroquinone should be kept in your skincare fridge. It's also beneficial to store certain prescription topical treatments like retinol in there.
Here are seven standout skincare fridge options worth considering. Each product was carefully researched and selected by our beauty editor, who considered everything from expert guidance and price to storage space and overall functionality. She also analyzed the product reviews, and made sure to only include products that boast at least a 4-star average rating on their respective retail sites.
Frigidaire's skincare fridge received the top spot on our list because of its low price, brand reputation, and chic, mid-century modern design.
This retro-inspired fridge features a mini window, silver hardware, and a roomy interior to store your larger skincare products and tools, like eczema creams and butt acne treatments.
Most skincare fridges keep your products cool between 45 to 50 degrees Fahrenheit. However, Frigidaire's option can dip down to 27 degrees Fahrenheit, which is great for depuffing your face quickly.
Costing just under $37, you simply can't go wrong with storing your beauty essentials in this top-rated skincare fridge.
When it comes to skincare fridges, Cooluli probably comes to mind: You've likely seen this brand on your Instagram and Pinterest feeds.
Available in multiple colors — ranging from attention-grabbing Fuchsia to clean and sophisticated White — you can find a Cooluli skincare fridge that complements your bedroom aesthetic the best.
This skincare fridge's interior is also functional — from a removable shelf to an interior slip pocket to store your sheet masks, you can easily arrange your skincare products and tools with Cooluli's offering.
Accessories: 2 chargers and 3 colorful dry-erase markers
As the second most affordable skincare fridge on this list, it's no surprise that Chefman's product caught my eye.
Beyond its chic black design, curved edges, and silver hardware, it's the sole option on this list boasting a sizeable handle! While it's certainly a unique feature, it's also practical for when you're traveling and can't live without your cool skincare products.
Speaking of traveling, you can even keep your skincare products (and your favorite water bottle) chilled during road trips, since Chefman's fridge includes car and home outlet chargers.
You can draw on this skincare fridge with the included dry-erase markers to customize its appearance or leave yourself reminders and cute words of affirmation.
Two shelves are better than one! Make the most of your new skincare fridge with this pretty option from Flawless.
It's lightweight and has ample storage space for your favorite items, like a gua sha stone and vitamin C serum. There's also a slit pocket to store skinnier products, like your array of sheet masks for your face, butt, and feet.
The pretty rose gold hardware adds a feminine touch to the glossy white skincare fridge. It's so aesthetically pleasing, I predict it'll be making cameos in your next TikTok video and Instagram feed.
Crownful's small and mighty skincare fridge is quiet, and it cools down to 32 degrees Fahrenheit quickly.
It includes a slit interior pocket and two non-adjustable shelves: You can store compact products like face creams on the top shelf, and larger ones like face toner on the bottom shelf.
This skincare fridge is also available in six standout colors, ranging from Blue and Red to Green and Pink.
A bonus: It earned an impressive 4.6-star average rating from nearly 8,000 rave reviews on Amazon.
When you live in a small apartment, it can be hard dealing with a limited amount of space. This compact Chefman skincare fridge can store your beauty products and tools, plus replace a lighted vanity mirror. So, you won't be giving up precious space! (It's the only model on this list featuring a bright LED exterior, as well as a light and sleek mirrored door.)
The interior is simple but effective, and it features a removable shelf that allows you some storage flexibility.
The only thing better than a new skincare fridge is one stuffed to the brim with products!
FaceTory's splurge-worthy offering includes 27 skincare essentials safe for the fridge, including several sheet masks, an eye cream, and a face cream. There's also an overnight face mask, toning mist, and an adorable, pink bunny-inspired headband to keep your hair out of your face while you're finishing up your morning and nightly skincare routines.
The fridge itself is also noteworthy: It's the largest option on this list, and is equipped with two adjustable shelves and a slit pocket, so you can fit pretty much everything you want in there.
If your beauty cabinet is brimming with face products and you don't need more beauty swag (lucky you!), you can order a Coral or Mint skincare fridge separately if you prefer.
